Larry
A hilarious new play celebrating the life and times of the much-missed comedian Larry Grayson.
“I was being called an overnight star, but it had taken me 95 years to get there”
Larry Grayson
Unable to “sing, dance or act”, Larry perfected a unique comic style to become a national treasure.
This dynamic drama charts Larry’s showbiz odyssey from humble beginnings, via his years as a trailblazing drag artiste, and into the hearts of millions as host of the BBC’s The Generation Game.
Larry is a tale of subterranean lows and stratospheric highs, reflecting on the beauty of dreams and the power of determination. Behind the glitter lies a rich story of enduring bonds and the painful scars of being gay in a time of criminalisation and stigma.
Join the comedy legend as he ‘opens that door’ on the most momentous performance he will ever give.
Tue 16 Mar 7pm performance will be followed by a post show talk – a unique opportunity to hear the actors talk about their experiences and your chance to ask questions.
